Content Warning: This episode contains mature themes including self-harm and trauma.
After 30 years as an award-winning radio producer in Boston, Katherin’s mentor Michelle Redo left her old life behind, relocating to a farm in rural Maine with her husband to pursue creative ventures. It was a change she never anticipated.
Life on the farm has given Michelle time and space to reflect. She hosts the podcast “Daring to Tell,” where she explores her love of memoirs and the intimate bond they forge between author and reader. As someone who’s mainly worked behind the scenes in broadcasting, getting behind the mic has prompted her to explore nuanced themes like uncertainty, change, and trust in great depth; along with how these themes have manifested in her own journey so far.
This episode shines a spotlight on Michelle's inspiring transition, her experiences in carving out a new life, and how exploring fear can be the catalyst for rewarding transformations. It's an insightful exploration of the resilience and adaptability that underscores the spirit of "And So, She Left."

Quote of the Week:
"There is something inherently hopeful about memoir. You feel like, well, the person survived to get through and tell their story...through the act of writing it, you know something was okay." - Michelle Redo
